[libreoffice-documentation] Question about audience Getting Started
Is the assumption about the Getting Started guide that these are people new to LibreOffice? I ask because I see some menu options that a new person would not see, and which the documentation does not mention (e.g. My Templates). Thanks, -- Kevin B.

[libreoffice-documentation] Impress Issue?
In reviewing the chapter on Impress in the Getting Started, I ran across something that looks different from earlier versions. It has to do with the Layout properties for Handouts. If you open a presentation in normal view, then go to the Handout tab, the Layout works as expected. If you then go to another window, like to consult a document of some kind, when you come back there is an error message: Properties for the task that you are performing are not available for the current selection. If you then click the Normal tab, and then back to the Handout tab, the usual Layout properties are back again. This is happening on the Windows 5.0.0.2 version. When I check the earlier 4.2.8.2 version in Linux, I don't see this behavior. It feels a little like a bug, though not a huge one. Can anyone confirm this? If so, do I file a bug, put a note in the documentation, or ignore it? Thanks, -- Kevin B.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] LO in the Mac Appstore
LO is definitely available on the Mac App store. Whether, or when, version *5.0* of LO will appear there is the question. I have not yet attempted to find out; it's provided by Collabora, not directly by TDF, btw. --Jean On Sat, Jul 4, 2015 at 7:41 AM, Dave Barton d...@tasit.net wrote: Ping Jean!

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Chapter 6 first draft uploaded
Most likely problem is incorrect anchoring, either type or placement of the anchors. I'm not sure when or if I'll have a chance to look at the chapter, but perhaps someone else will have time soon. --Jean On Sat, Jul 4, 2015 at 9:10 AM, Kevin O'Brien zwiln...@gmail.com wrote: I uploaded my first draft of Chapter 6, Impress.

[libreoffice-documentation] Impress toolbars in 5.0
Many of the toolbars that are referenced in the text are docked at the end of the Standard toolbar and not floating on my 5.0 in Windows installation. If that was a a setting I made, I have forgotten about it. If not, it is a change in behavior that should probably be reflected in the Getting Started guide. Can anyone confirm this behavior?
